One divination a day, a trainee celestial master

Jiang Shou strode out of the gate of Jinshui Bay with his long, straight legs, one hand in the pocket of his handmade Italian haute couture trousers, and expressionless.

I had just stepped out the door.

A black, extended Rolls-Royce Phantom was parked in a very stylish manner next to the fountain sculpture.

The car door opened, and a white-haired butler in a tuxedo and white gloves, along with several bodyguards in black, bowed respectfully.

"Young Master, you're finally out!" The butler rushed forward anxiously. "Hurry back to the company! The Master is throwing a tantrum on the top floor, and the entire board of directors is about to collapse!"

Jiang Shou's handsome face, chiseled like a knife's edge, showed no emotion whatsoever. His eyes were as deep as an ancient well, containing three parts mockery, three parts indifference, and four parts nonchalance.

"Back to the group."

Jiang Shou coldly uttered three words, then bent down and got into the luxury car.

……

Jiang Group, the landmark twin tower building in the city center with 108 floors.

The Rolls-Royce executed a very aggressive drift and came to a stop in front of the exclusive access road of the group's building.

As Jiang Shougang stepped into the luxurious first-floor lobby, Linda, the sexy and beautiful secretary at the front desk with a hot figure and wearing a professional bodycon skirt, immediately came running over in ten-centimeter high heels.

"Young Master! You've finally arrived!" Linda's eyes were red with anxiety, her full chest heaving. "The Master is smashing a cup in the CEO's office on the 108th floor! The executives are so scared they don't dare breathe. Please come up and see!"

Jiang Shou nodded slightly, not giving the sexy woman a second glance, and walked straight to the president's private elevator that went directly to the top floor.

"bite!!"

The elevator doors slowly opened on the 108th floor.

The entire top floor was filled with a suffocatingly low pressure.

Standing before the enormous floor-to-ceiling windows, Jiang Huaiyuan, the highest-ranking executive of the Jiang Group, was trembling with rage, dressed in a bespoke suit exuding an aristocratic air.

Standing before him were two rows of senior executives of the group, heads bowed and silent as if trembling with fear.

The floor was littered with torn-up multi-billion dollar merger and acquisition contracts, as well as shards of expensive bone china coffee cups and brown coffee stains. No one dared to go up and clean it up.

Jiang Shou walked in with one hand in his pocket and a cold expression.

"You unfilial son!"

Jiang's father, his eyes blazing with fury, pointed at Jiang Shou's nose and berated him, "The Lin Group and our Jiang Group have been strategic partners for ten years! Are you really going to ruin such a good business marriage with the Lin family's daughter for that woman of unknown origin?!"

Jiang's father slammed his fist on the table in anger: "You even used 10 billion yuan of the group's reserves to fight this pointless, mutually destructive business war with the Lin family! Are you crazy?!"

Faced with his father's thunderous rage.

Jiang Shou merely curled his lips coldly, his eyes revealing an unruly and domineering aura.

"That was an arranged marriage made by your older generation for their own benefit." Jiang Shou's voice was deep and magnetic, conveying an undeniable resolve. "If you want to marry someone, go ahead. I, Jiang Shou, will absolutely not marry the Lin family's daughter. In this life, I will only marry her!"

"As for blocking the Lin family's business..."

A dangerous glint flashed in Jiang Shou's eyes, his voice chilling as if ice crystals could drip from it: "Shen Xu is my woman. That idiot Lin Weiwei actually dared to slap her in front of so many people at yesterday's banquet! I will make the entire Lin family pay for that slap!"

"It's getting cold; the Lin Group should go bankrupt soon."

"You...you..." Jiang's father clutched his chest, enraged by these outrageous words. His finger trembled violently as he pointed at Jiang Shou. "This unfilial son! Are you trying to kill me?! I'm warning you, I've said it before, I absolutely will not allow that poor cleaning lady to enter the Jiang family! If you dare to marry her..."

"You have to agree whether you like it or not."

Jiang Shou met his father's gaze without flinching, his thin lips parted slightly, and he uttered a fatal line:

"You don't want... our Jiang family to be without an heir, do you?"

"!!!"

These words struck Jiang's father like a hammer blow. His eyes widened, and his anger completely overwhelmed his reason.

"You bastard!!"

"Bang!"

Jiang's father grabbed another limited-edition crystal ashtray from the desk and smashed it hard against Jiang Shou's head.

Jiang Shou merely tilted his head slightly, and the ashtray flew past his meticulously styled hair, smashing against the marble wall behind him and shattering into pieces.

"Oh."

Jiang Shou left behind a solitary and aloof figure, turned around, and slammed the door shut as he left.

……

The night was as dark as ink, and the rain poured down.

Jiang Shou drove an extremely flashy silver Koenigsegg supercar and parked it at the entrance of a dilapidated residential area.

The windshield wipers were whirring wildly. Jiang Shou sat in the driver's seat, his eyes fixed on the exit of the residential area.

Not long after.

In the midst of the pouring rain, a beautiful figure in a flowing white dress, seemingly untouched by the world, walked towards them from afar. She carried no umbrella, letting the rain soak her delicate, refined, and pitifully beautiful face.

It was Shen Xu.

When Shen Xu glimpsed the familiar top-of-the-line supercar parked by the roadside through the rain, and saw the man inside with a burning gaze, a flicker of panic and pain crossed her eyes. She abruptly turned her head and ran in the opposite direction.

"Still trying to run?"

Jiang Shou pushed open the car door, didn't even open an umbrella, and rushed into the rain to chase after them.

Before they had run more than a few steps, Jiang Shou, relying on his absolute physical advantage, grabbed Shen Xu's slender, moon-like wrist. With a forceful pull, he dragged her tightly into his broad, sturdy embrace.

With his other hand, he forcefully grabbed her smooth chin, forcing her to raise her head and meet his aggressive gaze.

"Women~ Ha!"

Jiang Shou's voice, slightly hoarse and intensely seductive, rang in the rainy night, "You want to escape from me?"

Shen Xu's tears mingled with the rain as she struggled desperately, her voice choked with sobs and despair: "Let me go! Don't follow me! Don't come looking for me again!"

"Woman~"

Jiang Shou tightened his grip slightly, his eyes filled with a mixture of deep affection and madness. "I've said it before, I will marry no one but you in this life. Whether you agree or not, it's all the same; you are destined to be forever labeled as Jiang Shou!"

"Don't be silly!" Shen Xu cried, tears streaming down her face, weakly pounding Jiang Shou's chest. "We can't be together! We're not a good match, and your family would never approve of us being together! Miss Lin is the most suitable for you..."

Upon hearing this...

Jiang Shou's lips curled up at a perfect 45-degree angle, revealing a wicked smile that was three parts evil and seven parts arrogant!

"Woman, you still don't understand me enough."

Jiang Shou held her slender waist tightly, his tone domineering and irresistible: "In this world, there's no woman I, Jiang Shou, want that's impossible! I'll kill gods and Buddhas if they stand in my way!"

Shen Xu tried her best to break free from his embrace, pushing against his chest with both hands.

But the disparity in strength between men and women made it impossible for her to escape. Under Jiang Shou's forceful and domineering pull, all of Shen Xu's pretense and defenses finally collapsed completely.

She stopped struggling and, like a wounded fawn, slumped weakly against Jiang Shou's broad shoulders, bursting into tears.

Feeling the dampness on his shoulder, Jiang Shou's eyes flashed with a triumphant smile.

He gave another wicked smile, just about to utter a few of those domineering CEO lines to appease his little wife...

Just then.

Meow~~

A sudden meow rang out amidst the touching scene of pink bubbles and kisses in the rain.

Jiang Shou was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked down.

On the curb next to the lovesick couple, a familiar, plump orange cat was leisurely walking past their feet.

As they walked by, the fat orange cat stopped, turned its head, and gave Jiang Shou a disdainful look, as if he were an idiot.

Jiang Shou stared blankly at the round back of the orange cat.

"Fat...Tiger?"

An extremely absurd sense of incongruity instantly rushed to my head.

"Holy crap!! Gian!!!!"

It was as if a thunderbolt struck Jiang Shou's mind.

The torrential rain, the luxury cars, the girl in the white dress crying in his arms, the 108-story Jiang Group... all crumbled and collapsed in an instant, like a shattered mirror!

……

"Huff! Huff!"

Jiang Shou gasped sharply, and sprang up as if he had been electrocuted!

He suddenly opened his eyes, gasping for breath, his forehead covered in a fine layer of cold sweat, his heart pounding violently in his chest.

Their focus gradually refocused.

There was no torrential rain, no Koenigsegg supercar, and no girl in a white dress crying in someone's arms.

At this very moment, he was standing in front of the leather sofa in the living room of the haunted villa in Jinshui Bay!

All around were tripods lying on the ground, a cheap peach wood sword stuck in the back of the sofa, and the air filled with the pungent smell of chemical fragrance and a faint stench of urine.

Jiang Shou wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his head buzzing.

"What the hell... I was actually bewitched and fell asleep on the sofa?!"

He had actually been dragged into a brainless, domineering, Mary Sue-esque dream by a female ghost and became the male lead?! Jiang Shou felt his scalp tingle.

Recalling the dream I just had, I kept saying "woman~", spouting cheesy, domineering CEO lines, and giving that "wickedly arrogant" smile...

"This is so damn shameful! I want to kill someone... no, I want to kill the ghost to silence it!!"

Jiang Shou gritted his teeth and pulled out the [Yang Qi Lantern Talisman] from his pocket.

"This isn't over tonight!"
